This was a wonderful program where I learned a great deal. This fulfilled a lifelong dream and now I intend to continue working with glass in classes near my home. Go, you will have a great time and the food was super.

Such a fun and well organized program. We were like kids at summer camp ("Look at what I made.") The staff at the glass studio were most helpful and eager to make sure we had a chance to experience the allure of glassmaking. They guided us patiently through all the processes so we learned so much while being kept safe from the fiery furnaces. Watson Homestead is a peaceful and beautiful place to stay and the cooks made sure we were well and delightfully fed. The program director was always helpful, fun, cheerful, and also full of knowledge on a variety of topics. It was a lovely experience and even the husbands coerced to attend by their wives had a great time.

Wow! This week at the Corning Museum Studios was incredible. I learned so much, met some wonderful people, and had a much needed break from my real life. I came home and bought a small kiln so that I can continue practicing the skills I learned. I highly encourage everyone to attend this.

Excellent opportunity to try your hand at glass making. I thoroughly enjoyed the programs and love the fruits of my labors. Who knew I could make flowers, beads, suncatchers, and more. What fun, with a friendly group of participants and instructors.

This program was great. Lots of hands on studio time. It is true that you will not believe how much glass you have to take home when the program is over. It is managed well, on time, and busy. The evenings are free with glass videos to watch. A couple TV's in shared areas and wireless that is sometimes spotty. The conference center is in a lovely area the food is plentiful and good.
